The streets were busy today. Full of life as people went about their business. Mr.Fell looked wistfully out of his shop window. A man out of time. He mumbled to himself as he watched.

"It's all so new, isn't it angel?"

"Oh! You startled me you fiend!" Mr.Fell gasped glancing over. He looked back to the window. "I suppose you're right, though. Looking out...It almost feels..."

"Like you're trapped in a bottle?"

"Precisely, my dear." He frowned, face scrunched up in thought. After a while he looked back to the streets. "Do you miss her?" He spoke quietly.

"What's to miss?"

"Oh...I don't know." Mr.Fell said, though he clearly knew.

"Azira-"

"Look it's not like I expected anything from her. It just hurts. It's- It's-"

"It's ineffable Angel."

"Well..."

"I miss her. But I think that every time I look at them I am reminded. We aren't alone here. She made so much. Gave so much to us except the one thing she kept from us. We weren't made to be alone."

Mr.Fell gave him a small smile. "Well, good thing we are not alone." He pulled his hand out of his pocket and took the others. Gold rings against pale skin.

"A new restaurant opened."

Mr.Fell looked contemplative and gave a hum of interest.

"Sells Egyptian food. Met the owner, good people."

He looked up at the other. "Well, I wouldn't mind a bite. Let's go see shall we?" He smiled.

The girl was not trying to eves-drop. In fact she had been reading a book about dragons to relax when the conversation arose. She wondered who 'She' was and why Mr. Fell felt so trapped. It was a good thing he had Anthony. The girl sighed flipping a page and looking up. Mr.Fell was walking up to the table. "Oh, I love that one." He said looking at her book. She smiled.

"Well, unfortunately the store will be closed soon. I have arranged a date of sorts." The girl nodded and started to pack up. "Oh no," he said softly. He placed a key on the table. "You can stay as long as you like, my dear. Lock up when you're through." She gave a nod. "Good."

Anthony was at the door as Mr.Fell looked back. "Well, I'm off. Enjoy your story!" He waved goodbye as he hurried to the door and left with Anthony.
